Picture Of Governor Lee.

Professor Orrin r. Thomas, of New
York, but a native of North Carolina
who is now stopping at Ford's Hotel,
has made crayon picture of Governor
Lee, which was exhibited at the Capi
tol yesterday. 1t successfully delineates
the commanding brow and pleasing
countenance of our honored Executive,
and was by all who saw it pronounced
q great artistic success.

More Music for the Senate

We are proud that the President has nomi-
mated another colnred man not a resident OF
W. slinston to be Recorderof Deeds at Wash
ington, says the New York stGr. We are
pleased that, like Mr. Matthews, Mr.. James
Trotter bears an unb!em:shed reputation. We
are amused that, unlike Mr.. Matthews, Mr..
Tro,ter has been Republican office holder,
but was removed from an important position
in the Boston Post Office because he changed
his politics and voted for Presiden. Cleveland.
The plot thickens for the S enaie. The Presi-
dents course is as straight as die.
1t is probable that the Senate will decline
10 confirm Mr.. Trotter. To men of Senator
ingalls, stripe an habitual colored Democrat
was sufficiently monstrous but what will be
thought Of ius,s nature that has fed for
eighteen years at the Republican crib and then
turns Demociat for conscience sake:
And if the Senate will not confirm, and
adjourns without taking action ? Why then
Mr.. Trotter's appointment holds over through
the recess, and by next December the Presi-
.lent will have another suitable candidate, not
4 resident Of Washington, ready to propose
There is, happily, no lack of colored Demo-
Gratis. The Senate has been making them fas-
ter than the President can recognize their mer-
its. The colored press the country over is SOW
ing the good seed. Thus far only Albany and
Boston have been drawn upon. There are
Cincinnati, Chicago, St. Louis. Philadelphia,
Savannah AID Yonkers yet to be heard from,
with ar ever growing certainty that success
sion of wise and reputable colorcd Recorders
ii Deeds shall otfciate at Washington even
through a second term fol Mr.. Cleveland.
Mr.. Trotter combines knowledge of music
with his other attainments. He will appreciate
then that by his nomination, the President
has struck another firm chord which will vi
hrate through the colored race which blends
sympathy and iNity ofipurpose i'll harmonious
proportion, and in which the dominant note is
he insistance that under Democratic adj
tninistration colored Democrat is as worthy

The agreeable announcement is MAIDS that
The joint resolution for an amendment to the
constitution changing Inauguration day to the
18th of April will be among Il measures
pushed to the front during the few days re-
manning of the session in the house. 1t is the
one measure, perhaps, in all the list exclu-
sire of the appropriation bills, which affects
the interests of the whole country alike. The
Pacific railroad investigation, the fisheries
PRESTON, the Detroit public building, and
other kindred subjects, touch part of the peo-
pie but constitutional amendm emf which
establishes a logical date for the inauguration
Il Presidents, and makes the snort session OF
Congress something better than roush-and-
tumble struggle tor precedence, is OF direct
concern TO the whole American people
There is no reason why it should take more
than five minutes of the valuable time OF the
House to be passed and sent to the Pres dent.

The Blaine and Sherman Factions.

Senator Sherman is to GO on south
ern trip. Ostensibly it is to be social
jaunt in reality it is the first move IN his
campaisn for the Republican nomination
The trip will be to Tampa, Florida, thence
to Cuba and, when refreshed by South
crn breezes. and infused, perchance, with
new ardor for the oppressed party in
the G ulf States, he will appear at Nash
vile to deliver political address. =
Such is the programme, as arranged tor
him By the men who served under him in
one ca pacity or another while the OHIO
Senator was Secretary of the Treasury,
and who organized the campaign of 1850
for him, These hackers are already
claiming for him, Kentucky, Tennessee,
Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia, and
Senator Malone and John $. Wise have
pledged Virginia and North Carolina
Ia the North the situation is not so fiat
tering for NJ. Sherman, but is said to be
/. full of hope" In New York he is strong
est with the Germans. though the Irish
vote is conceded to Blaine. The most
complete understanding is said to exist
between Edmunds and Sherman, and
therefor New England may be specially
Martial to him. Massachusetts, is already
being drummed for him, aud Edmunds
holds Vermont in his hand.
The movement to secure the West re-
&C ived its first impulse when ingalls, was
made President Of the Senate. Sher-
man did it. and the Senator from Kansas
is cognizant thereof Rumor even now
says that the eloquent ingalls, will pre-
sent the name of Mr.. Sherman fer II c
Presidency, in the Convention
In the mean while, the 'Plumed
knight" has decided to make ';no more
speeches" With characteristic saeacity
he awaits, and watches in silence. The
proud spirit still chafes under the sccrch-
ing memory Of defeat. Pride and ambi-
ton, no doubt, urge him forward to a
second endeavor to reach the long eovet.
Cd goal Discretion and personal CON-
fort, in the other hand, hold up to him
the sweet repose of private life and the
never ending joys of quiet mind. II
however, he is still in the race, Senator
Sherman is rapidly looming up as his
most formidable competitor.

The announ cement made by Mr.. Matthews,
rejected as recorder of deeds of the District OF
Columbia, that he had appointe j. NJ. Trot-
Ter, colored, recently nominated by President
Cleveland as the successor TO Matthews, 10 be
deputy recorder Of deeds, occasioned much
talk at Washington on Wednesday morning.
Matthe ws's term ends with this Congress on
the 4th of March, and his appointment &
Tro,ter, has the effect, it is said, under the
law, Of keeping Trotter as principal in the Of
flee even if the Senate rejects him. L nder the
